THE OLD FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE OLD FORGE sales from March 2000 and November 2001 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the March 2000 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the November 2001 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
